Visualizing Texts on Maps

Just a sneak preview of a website I’m building — the idea is to have an algorithm read through a bunch of magazine articles, find place names, and map those places onto a city or region of a country. Then, when the user hovers over the place, a list of sentences appear on the right, showing the context for each occurrence. Each small red dot is a place mentioned in the text; larger blobs of color show concentrations of places.
